I am not sure what you mean by the central limit theorem in this context...
As for ergodic hypothesis, it also depends on the problem of course.
What is guaranteed, by construction, is that IF the MD at a given
temperature is 'ok' (by whatever your definition of ok is), then T-REMD
will give you the same results, only faster.
So, if you believe your regular MDs obey the central limit theorem and
are ergodic, then your T-REMD trajectories will also be.
Makes sense ?
